305 The Shame of the Academy Steps onto the World Stage (2/2)
Ning Que looked at her and said earnestly, ”I think you are more shameless for taking advantage of my injuries.”
”Furthermore, you are really not our opponent. The Tao Addict is here. Since you couldn't even defeat her in the past, do you think that you can defeat her now? Don't hurry to rebut this. Think through this carefully. It is true that her state has fallen from the Knowing Destiny State to the Seethrough State. But you lost to her when she was still in the Seethrough State.”
Tang Xiaotang furrowed her brows slightly and thought that Ning Que's words seemed to make sense.
Ning Que looked at her expression and added on, ”Furthermore, she had been in the Knowing Destiny State for some time and has the experience of a Grand Cultivator. Experience is very important in a battle. I guess you do not have this kind of experience?”
Tang Xiaotang shook her head and replied honestly, ”The Enlightenment Doctrine does not have the five different states like the Taoist Sect. But it is true that my state now is not as strong as your Knowing Destiny State.”
The Devil's Doctrine did not have five states... Ning Que was slightly startled. He thought that this was a bad sign for his future. Wouldn't it be easy for others to discover that he had joined the Devil? He frowned and decided that he should first settle the currrent problem now.
”Anyway, no matter what, you won't be able to defeat the Tao Addict. If the three of us fight together, you will definitely not be able to win.”
Mo Shanshan smiled slightly beside him, ”I really can't fight anymore.”
Ye Hongyu spoke up from afar with a cool expression, ”You can fight with your life if you want, but why should I?”
Ning Que was furious. Was this the time for them to be so frank? However, he could tell from Mo Shanshan and Ye Hongyu's attitudes that there was no true danger anymore. So, he looked at the girl from the Devil's Doctrine and said, ”Well, the most important thing in life is to be happy. I understand why you are angry, but I hope that you can understand the injustice I have experienced.”
He continued, ”Even though your dog has been frightened, but I can assure you that he didn't lose any bit of flesh. If I put it down and return it to you, I hope that you won't act rashly anymore. Okay?”
Tang Xiaotang looked at the dog that was on its last breath and could not be bothered to fight anymore. She nodded quickly.
Ning Que removed his hand from the Little White Dog's mouth forcefully and handed it over.
Tang Xiaotang held Whitey happily and stroke his white fur in comfort. Whitey nudged at her face weakly before burrowing his head in the girl's recently developed, soft chest.
Ning Que stepped back and praised, ”It is really an adorable puppy.”
Tang Xiaotang explained seriously, ”Whitey is a snow wolf, not a dog.”
Ning Que received a sudden epiphany and said, ”So it is a little white wolf.”
It was then when the little white wolf stole a glance at him from the girl's embrace. Its gaze was sharp and fierce, as if it was saying that it would bite Ning Que to death in the future if it had the opportunity to.
”It is indeed a wolf.” Ning Que thought to himself viciously. He would throw it into the back of the mountain of the Academy should it have the opportunity to and have Second Brother's goose teach it a lesson.

Tang Xiaotang said to the three before she left, ”Even though there is only this one path to leave the sacred land, it was made by those from the Enlightenment Doctrine, there are many confusing arrays. There is a lot of mist these few days, be careful when you head out. You might not be able to get out if you get lost.”
Mo Shanshan bowed calmly, and replied, ”Thank you for your reminder, young lady.”
The young Talisman Master would not have hesitated to battle her to death if she had met such an important witch from the Devil's Doctrine in the past. However, she had gotten to know more about the difference between the Devil's Doctrine and Taoism from her travels from the Great River Kingdom to the Wilderness with Ning Que. She would not view the world as she used to, especially after experiencing something like Master Lotus.
Tang Xiaotang replied, ”You're welcome, I just wanted to make him feel worse.”
She was referring to Ning Que. He smiled and said, ”Why don't we travel together?”
Tang Xiaotang looked at him and said with satisfaction, ”You guys always say that the Enlightenment Doctrine is the Devil's Doctrine and that the Tao and the Devil's Doctrine belong to two different sects. Why do you want me to take you guys out of here now? I want you guys to beg me. Why don't you beg me?”
Ning Que said seriously, ”Oh no, the Academy has always encouraged inclusiveness. To the Academy, the difference between Taoism and the Devil's craft are but just conceptual differences. I have always admired Enlightenment Doctrine's predecessors.”
And then, he straightened his expression and said solemnly, ”Miss Tang, please take us out with you. I beg you.”
